AMR, Inc. President And CEO David Zahler Institutes Cash Card And Paperless Payroll Program That Offers a Host Of Employee and Environmental Benefits

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- AMR, Inc. President and CEO David Zahler has recently instituted a company cash card and paperless payroll program that offers a myriad of benefits to employees and staffing associates recruited by AMR to fill temporary, long-term and executive management positions with major corporations in California. The plan also provides AMR cost savings and a range of ecological advantages that continue to contribute to the company's ranking as a leader in the industry.

With more than 30 years in the staffing services, Zahler is continually seeking innovations for his company, his customers and associates. Going green has also been a priority.

"It's always been my goal in this business to give back as much as I can to my employee base in benefits, incentives, education and training," said Zahler. "I determined that if I could save them money through this cash card, then essentially they're all getting a raise."

The cash card is administered by a national company and works like a Visa or Master Card. Weekly pay is automatically transferred or posted to the card and offers employees access to banking institutions and thousands of ATMs where they can deposit and withdraw money without a fee. Also functioning as an ATM card, the program may carry normal fees similar to other cards for in store or online purchases. AMR's goal is to educate their employee base to be able to use the card without paying for it.

Prior to the cash card, many associates had no other option than to lose a percentage of their gross wages cashing checks at lunch trucks and payroll cashing companies. Zahler calculated that over a year's time the savings are equivalent to one week's pay, an amount that could potentially feed a family of four for an entire month.

"Every business should be environmentally conscious," said Zahler. "The volume of checks, printer cartridges, ink, as well as fuel, emissions and labor costs for delivery and distribution of the actual hardcopy payroll has been substantial. It's a huge savings for us and a great benefit for our employees.

AMR, Inc. is one of California's top-rated staffing companies specializing in recruiting, training and placing the most qualified candidates in temporary and long-term employment. Under the direction of President and CEO David Zahler, AMR uses sophisticated computer matching programs and provides clients a zero-risk policy guaranteeing no payment until they select a perfect AMR candidate.
